Yes it was obvious and unmistakeable to whom he was speaking at the time and therefore a safe place to put those words together.
I think it may have been more natural to just say you, or yourselves, or the people that cover the team.
He chose the words he used and used them twice where there is no room for inflammation.
Isn’t he clever.
